about

The Buck Stops Here brims with the unique energy of a live performance, something that is often difficult to replicate in the studio, particularly when the programme is all original compositions. By recording this album live, Paul Van Ross sought to transport listeners to that night at the Paris Cat Jazz Club in Melbourne, to experience the atmosphere of the venue, the energy and skill of the musicians, the buzz of the event and, most importantly.... the music!

A graduate of the Victorian College of the Arts, Paul currently lives in Melbourne, Australia. He studied in New York with some of the world's leading teachers and musicians, and has toured and performed extensively in many parts the world. A talented woodwind specialist, he has performed and taught saxophone, flute and clarinet for more than 20 years. THE BUCK STOPS HERE is his third release under his own name, and all of the tracks are his own compositions and arrangements.

"The compositions on this album were largely inspired by an array of life experiences and influences, from family, friends and musicians, to the many musical genres that continue to inform my playing and writing. These have combined to create a marvellous musical melting pot that is evident in the music on this album, music that should appeal to jazz aficionados and those who enjoy the energetic buzz of live music. I hope you enjoy The Buck Stops Here." - Paul Van Ross 2012.
